    NASCAR and the weekend...

    Do you believe that Shat? Jr. starts in daddies number 3 retro Wrangler car, and wins. Paaalease! He ain't won crap all year! I know the sport is suffering because of the economy, but this is the biggest NASCAR fix since he won the Daytona 500 after SR. died. Your thoughts?

    Storing Crushed Grain

    I had planned on brewing this weekend, but now it won’t be for 2 weeks, if I can squeeze it in. My grain is crushed and just sitting on the dining room table. Should I put it in the fridge or is it OK at room temp? Thanks.

    CO2 PSI Out Of Primary Regulator

    Setting up the gas side of my Keezer and have one question. I have a primary regulator on my CO2 bottle which will feed a triple secondary via 5/16inch line. How should I set to output pressure of the primary? I figure 20 PSI should be fine to feed the secondary’s, since I won't be doing any...

    What kind of keg posts are these?

    Can you tell me what post these are? The kegs both have The Cornelius Co. stamped on them, but from everything I’ve seen at the online stores, the posts don’t look like Cornelius post, they look like Firestone posts, and two of them are the star type, not hex nuts. The poppet’s look like...
